Which packages are affected by GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx?

GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx affects the following packages: it.geosolutions.jaiext.jiffle:jt-jiffle (Maven), it.geosolutions.jaiext.jiffle:jt-jiffle-language (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx?

Update it.geosolutions.jaiext.jiffle:jt-jiffle to version 1.1.22 or later. Run your dependency manager's update command and verify no transitive dependencies pin the vulnerable version. Use O3 Security's SCA scanner to confirm the fix is applied across your entire dependency tree.

Is GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 1 known exploit references for GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx, including 1 in-the-wild exploitation observed on GitHub and other sources. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx?

GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 94.0%, placing it in the 100th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. A score above 50% indicates significantly elevated exploitation risk — immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Is GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog?

Yes. GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx (OSGeo GeoServer JAI-EXT Code Injection Vulnerability) was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog on 2024-06-26. CISA required all US federal civilian agencies to remediate this vulnerability by 2024-07-17. The required action was: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Being listed in the KEV catalog is the strongest possible confirmation of active exploitation — treat this as a critical priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx?

GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx is classified as Code Injection (CWE-94). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

Is there exploit tooling available for GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx?

A Nuclei detection template exists for GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx was published on September 19, 2023 and was last updated on October 22, 2025. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Impact

Programs using jt-jiffle, and allowing Jiffle script to be provided via network request, are susceptible to a Remote Code Execution as the Jiffle script is compiled into Java code via Janino, and executed. In particular, this affects the downstream GeoServer project.

Patches

Version 1.2.22 will contain a patch that disables the ability to inject malicious code into the resulting script.

Workarounds

Negate the ability to compile Jiffle scripts from the final application, by removing janino-x.y.z.jar from the classpath.

References

None.
